The Fall didn't affect us all equally

Ok, spiritually the Fall of Man affected us all equally---lost fellowship with God, will go to Hell if not redeemed.We also lost immortality{in the physical body}{"Through one man death entered in'}{"As in Adam all die"}But after that, things AREN'T the same for all unsaved people living in the fallen world.Some experience the affects of the fall to a greater or lesser degree than others.Like, we see that some are born with a defect or sickness--the heart, or for that matter,some are born mentally challenged. But others are born just fine.There are some that get a health issue and die early,like 40 years old from an inherited condition like a heart attack or cancer. Another unsaved person is in their 90s,yet in exceptional condition for their age.So if the Fall affected all of us, and these are unsaved people I'm talking about, how to account for the fact that some have a lesser or greater cross to bear{One woman wants a child, but has a miscarriage.Another unsaved woman gives birth.}They all were born after the Fall, but their situations are NOT all the same.Why is that?

Let me ask you this Steven, why does God repeat Himself? There are many places in the Word of Jesus that talk about not thinking about ourselves and even not thinking at all, why does God re mention certain things? I use the KJV by the way.

Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

Isaiah 55:7

Commit thy works unto the Lord,
and thy thoughts shall be established.

Proverbs 16:3

For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,
saith the Lord.

Isaiah 55:8

Are you dead to yourself Steven? Do you not think most Christians are becoming more and more dead to themselves as well as dead to their thoughts?
If you word it that way, ,like think Gods thoughts instead of our own...but if you make it sound like thinking or being curious about something is a sin, if that's the case,than every retarded person would go to Heaveen , or anyone in a coma would go to Heaven. Someone who's brain dead after an accident would go to Heaven.Depends how you word it.....
 
Yeah it's a prayer site but in the BLOG part, ,the homepage is for prayer requests, and the blog page...that's what blogs areYou notice I don't post a blog about a secular subject that has nothing to do with the Bible. It's still about subjects that in some way are asked in a spiritual way.But again, I can name many others that do fairly similar to me, but you're quiet as a mouse.And I see many others who, on the BLOG PAGE of the prayer site,don't post a prayer like on the homepage, but not a peep out of you.Only me.And like you have doubts about me,I have a certain doubt about you. You quote that one verse continuously,and no other, have YOU read anything else in the Bible?Maybe that's all you read.

Steven, Steven, Steven, do I need to forward things to you about my other postings? Haven't I done that? Do you really think that you are the only person I post anything to? Are you really that shallow? I am only someone that has been enlightened to the fact that we are not to think about ourselves. The only reason I share that is because God puts it on my heart to share it. Do you wish someone to stop doing what God instructs them to do?

I say it would be nice for once if I saw you quote or discuss other things from the Bible. It gives the appearance that that that's the only thing you read in the Bible.

Whatever makes you more comfortable about holding onto your thoughts Steven, keeping your thoughts, holding onto your life, finding your life where? By all means do what you will Steven.

What is the cost of being a real true Christian Steven? Isn't it your very life, your very thoughts that should be dead? Who are we alive to when we die to ourselves? Are you really dead to yourself Steven and alive unto Christ?

That means we're supposed to throw away all other verses in the Bible?Didn't answer why you never discuss other verses.Do YOU think God wants you to throw away everything else in the Bible?If someone brings up a different Biblical subject, would you be able to discuss it?When you said God puts it on your heart to quote that, do you think He told you to ignore everything else in the Bible?You didn't answer that question.

You are very funny Steven. Have you ever read what I post on everyone else's posts? Is not there other things that I have posted on almost everyone's posts? Did you answer my question? Are you actually dead to yourself and yet alive unto Christ?

Isn't count it all as joy in the Bible Steven?

The Fall has affected me personally. The devil tempts me all the time and sometimes I fall and repent and come to Jesus again and again. Jesus forgives those who seek Him early and those who are with a broken heart.

What if Jesus always has you forgiven past, present and future? What if we always stood before God the Father forgiven in and through Jesus? Why don't we just simply live that way? :)

Count it all joy is in the Bible.The verse states,"Therefore count it all joy when you go through various trails."But I struggle with that, maybe because I have a lower tolerance level than others.And because,it's not my true feelings,my "natural reactions" are, not being a masochist,to dislike trials.So I struggle with that, like another Christian might struggle giving up an addiction problem.So instead of realizing that some have a struggle,instead you ridicule me.Jesus also said,"True, no trails are for the moment pleasant'Jesus Himself admitted that.I have the King James version Bible also.{they say it's the most accurate.}
